This shaved summer squash salad is a vibrant celebration of seasonal produce, combining thinly ribboned courgettes and yellow pattypan squash for a beautiful, textural finish. The mild sweetness of the squash is perfectly balanced by a zesty lemon and garlic dressing, while a handful of peppery baby rocket adds a fresh, punchy note. It is an exceptionally light and elegant dish that captures the essence of a British summer garden on a single plate.
Ideal as a healthy lunch or a sophisticated side dish for a weekend barbecue, this vegan-friendly recipe is packed with vitamins and healthy fats from the extra-virgin olive oil and roasted almonds. The addition of crushed nuts provides a satisfying crunch that contrasts beautifully with the tender squash ribbons. For the best results, serve immediately while the rocket is crisp and the dressing is bright.

How to make Shaved Summer Squash Salad
Roast almonds and coarsely crush. Meanwhile, trim the ends off summer squash. Using a vegetable peeler, thinly slice the squash lengthwise into strips and transfer to a large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic clove, and kosher salt to taste. Pour dressing over squash. Let stand for a few minutes, then add a few handfuls of baby rocket. Shave a little Pecorino over the squash and toss. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Garnish with the crushed almonds.
